Dataset of East China Sea cruise in August 2013

Data source: Zhang et al., 2021: Dissolved iron data and other auxiliary parameters from water samples during Dongfanghong-2 cruise in August 2013 in the East China Sea.

Method: The file contains dissolved iron (dFe) and inorganic nutrients concentrations. dFe concentration was processed with isotope dilution method (Lee et al., 2011, ACA) and measured on Neptune MC-ICP-MS at East China Normal University. Nutrients (NO2-, NO3-, NH4+, DIP, and DSi) were measured using a nutrient auto-analyzer (Skalar SANplus) at Ocean University of China (Liu et al., 2009, Biogeosciences; Dong et at., 2021, AOS, in press). The high resolution CTD data (temperature, salinity, density, turbidity, fluorescence) was also included in this dataset.

Project(s): This study was funded by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China (MoST-China Ref.: 2011CB409801) and Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC Ref.: 41876071).
